also it will help if you can keep playing teams that suffered epic meltdowns the previous week.

 

Yes, because when it was 14-14 after the Giants scored two TD's to tie the game they remembered that they blew a lead the week before and fell apart.

Man, I'd be livid if I were Coughlin

 

Well he made a stupid challenge, and has to live with it. What was the call besides the interception Sulley?

 

the phantom offensive PI. absolutely shameful and unsportsmanlike call by the officials on that one as well.

Yeah, I think that was one of those calls which looks much worse in real time. Once he extended his arm and Williams was five yards down field he was screwed.

next thing you know, they're going to win a game when a wr doesn't "complete the process" of a would-be game winning td catch.

Glad I was wrong. Colts have played quite well, all things considered, the past three games. They should handle the Titans next week; if so, ten wins and a divisional title would have to be considered a success (again, all things considered).

Just because I think it's a little funny, it's still remotely possible for Philly to snag the 1 seed. Here is every result that needs to happen for this to occur:

 

- NO over ATL

- PHI over MIN

- PHI over DAL

- CAR over ATL

- TB over NO

- CHI over GB

- PIT over CLE

- NYG over WAS

- IND over TEN

- SF over ARI

 

If all ten games go the right way, it creates a 3-way tie at 12-4, with the tiebreaker going to strength of victory, and if all those other seemingly meaningless games go that way, Philly wins the strength of victory tiebreaker.

 

EDIT: Bah, Philly beat Atlanta, so they win the tiebreaker in a 2-way tie as well if Chicago loses. Still, this would be funnier.

Also, the NFC West play-in game is being flexed to Sunday night next week, because any other game could potentially be meaningless by the time it's played.

If the Bears beat the Packers, isn't there no chance that Philly can be ahead of the Bears?

No. They could be tied, but the Bears would win the tie-breaker because they beat Philadelphia head-to-head.

20 seconds remaining + best returner in NFL history + a top 3 kicker in the NFL = game not over.

Exactly. In that scenario, if the Bears win, they are the number one seed because they would have beaten Philly head to head.
